A MG TC owning friend highly recommends Delo 400 for old engines...I have 
been using it with success in my MG SA which has poured bearings and my 
sailboat 
Atomic 4 engine even tho it is a gas engine more like a tractor engine.....I 
plan to use it also in the MG NA engine which also has poured bearings....It is 
sometimes on sale at marine stores.
